Don't Miss Out On Seeing Kuranda During Your Stay in Cairns

Our Trinity Beach Cairns apartments at Marlin Cove are also moments from the lush, green rainforest of Kuranda that are a must-visit in Cairns for the complete Cairns experience. There are lots of ways you can experience Kuranda and one of the most popular is taking the Skyrail Rainforest Cableway or the Kuranda Scenic Railway, where you can cross the top of the rainforest and look down on the tropical beauty from above! Seeing Kuranda is a good day out for the whole family and is a must during any first-time visit to Cairns.

A popular spot amongst locals and tourists is Kuranda Village. Discover a vibrant village inside the rainforest itself where you can walk, relax, grab a bite, and check out the village shops and markets. This is a unique experience, where it’s not often you will find a thriving village inside a tropical rainforest - and you can meet the locals!

Kuranda offers an endless list of activities to enjoy and things to explore during your visit. Some of these include a riverboat cruise of Barron River inside the forest, an experience with koalas at the koala gardens, birdwatching, exhilarating Aboriginal performances to watch, kangaroo and wallaby feeding, and lots more!

At the Kuranda markets browse through stalls selling a wide range of Aboriginal artefacts, handmade goods, jewellery, leather items, souvenirs, and clothes! The markets can be found in two locations inside the rainforest and are named the Original Markets and the Heritage Markets. You can also find many stalls selling delicious food, ice cream, and juices. Listen to Aboriginal music, get your fortune told, and even have your portrait painted! Kuranda is the perfect day out waiting ahead in Cairns, and you can discover this World Heritage Rainforest just a short journey from our Cairns holiday accommodation!
